Hi,

I have taken a live approach to responding concerning the upcoming season.

I find the winter to relax and recover from the tourists and beach bunnies of summer. The following cam (beach) is the landing zone for "Surfergirl"; my residence is 500 yrds to the left. Yes, those are live Palm trees on the beach in NJ. The traffic and activity until the wee hours of morning can get tiring.

The Jersey shore is #3 concerning water activities Hawaii #1, California #2 and Jersey #3. It was totally hot this summer from Point Pleasant to Surf City as a side note does anybody remember the old beach boys song "going to Surf City" well it's the spot to enjoy and bring your Hobie.

Please go to the following site, and enjoy the cams.

www.tikibar.com

Now if beach bar is not your cup of tea, simply cruise down 8 miles to the following to the MTV beach house at Seaside Heights.

www.extratv.com/dailynews/extra/07_02/07_17c.html

I hope to get MTV to get a shot of boat while sailing by, ya got to have a hard body onboard to accomplish this effort.

I honestly could say that 2 seasons would be good summer and winter. The summer to party and enjoy till you drop and winter to reenergize one's self and boat.

So when the summer heat approaches send an email and let's retro back to the 60's.

Happy upcoming season to all.

Mike

for you guys up north, just to show you that we have to deal with winter too...

i got cold here in tampa, mid 70's. i put the boat away on monday for the winter. i'll be breaking it out saturday for the start of the new sailing season. i must admit though, i didn't get all of the things on my list done while the boat was in storage.

From shark bait... I mean Dave Parker, a few reply's up from first my pictorial response.

Hey, Question for all you bilge dwelling Floridians. If my wife goes to a convention in Miami in December, would that be a good excuse for me to trailer the boat down there for some winter sailing? How is sailing in Miami at that time of year?

Mike,
That photo of the Causeway from Paul (aka Leo) was stolen and desecrated from my earlier post (see my earlier attachment). He's just a Nancy-boy, afraid of a few well-fed sharks! It seems that those Wisconsin folks would prefer a lap dance from some carp. Weird world, ain't it?

I borrowed the aerial photo from the City of Dunedin's website at http://www.ci.dunedin.fl.us:/dunedin/honeymoon.htm

Leo,
Usually beautiful sailing weather in Miami in December. Whether you want to bring your boat down would depend on how long you plan on being here. If only for a short time and you just want a chance to sail one or two days, there is now a place on Biscayne Bay that rents cats. Website is www.miamicatamarans.com. If you bring your own boat, you could launch at Hobie Beach, but it is not the kind of place where you would want to leave it overnight. If you want to sail your boat in the Keys, e-mail me, and I can give you more information about that.

If you are a racer, the Hobie Wave Nationals are in Key Largo December 6, 7 and 8; and the Key Largo Steeplechase is Dec. 14 and 15.
